Re: [che-dev] Properties with type 'any' in DTOs
Hi
Can you provide some examples of DTO and their usage?
I want to understand your use case more clearly.

Hi,

We are still suggesting improvements to the DTO generator that will improve support for externally defined JSONs. One very common characteristic of several services is defining some properties with type 'any', allowing parts of the data to be transferred as freely structured JSONs. Right now Che's DTO solution doesn't support this feature (Map properties are not sufficient here).

My proposal is to support DTO properties with type JsonElement. The generated deserializer and copy constructor will copy the matching part of the input JSON, and the matching serializer will copy the property's value to the output JSON. The currently generated functions toJson() and fromJsonString(str) create temporary JSONs so I added an internal parameter that prevents redundantly copying JSONs for 'any' properties in these flows.

Please review my pull request for the above proposal or alternatively provide any insights for suggestions:
